Zombies through the years

October 11, 2013

8of14

This movie might not be wholly considered a zombie film, since its antagonists are more like mutants than the undead. However, it still brings back the engrossing, thrilling tropes of the undead films, such as the notion of a mob versus one survivor, enemies with no concern for physical pain or obstacles, psychological trauma caused by the moans and sounds of the monsters, etc.
While not quite as intelligent as the original novel, Will Smith's performance makes this adaptation worthy of a mention here. With fast-paced, 28-Days-Later-style monsters and the incredibly engrossing use of dilapidated sets and stunning CGI overlaid on NYC, this film is a must-see for action and horror fans alike.
Made for $150 million, the film made $585 million worldwide.
